From the moment we submitted an enquiry right through to the event itself, the staff were beyond helpful with all the details, logistics, planning etc. to ensure that our event went so smoothly. Pete answered all questions super quickly and helpfully, and he and his team were amazing in the lead up with dropping bits off and handling everything on the day. The pizzas were so tasty that we had to order more on the day as our guests loved them so much! Such a great selection of drinks on offer and very reasonably priced. Would 100% recommend the venue and the staff, we had an excellent time and would definitely book this again for other events.
The toilet floors got a bit messy throughout the afternoon, especially the baby changing as the sink splashes water out a lot, but as soon as we mentioned to the staff they were very quick to help to clean the floors and kept an eye for the rest of the afternoon.

FAQ

Yes. The venue will be playing music, but clients can control the sound. The music is usually older or modern indie, with possibly more pop in the evening if the vibe suits.

No, unfortunately, guests cannot connect to the venue's sound system.

Yes, games are shown as standard, but they can be switched off if preferred.

The tables cannot be fully removed, but they can be pushed to the side to free up a lot of space. The middle table can be moved to the back in place of the little round table, while the others can be pushed to the wall or into the corner.

No, the venue is step free with accessible toilets. There may be the slightest elevation, so this is worth checking; even if you have to enter via the Bar Room, it's only a short journey to the back.
